Hi, I’m Jia or 佳林.

I’m an aspiring Art Director who ended up here after a brief flirtation with a career in medicine. 

Born in Fuzhou, China, and raised in Queens, NYC, where careers like doctor or lawyer were encouraged, I ended up choosing a path with more creativity. 

My days are spent creating, knitting, exploring nature, and soaking in new ideas. Always learning, always growing.



My current obessesions include:
* Doing my own nails
* Learning Korean and Italian
* Collecting flowers
